I wish I could freeze time and keep Brecklyn at this age forever.
She loves to dance. Most of the time she walks around with her phone that's playing music and dancing to it. We love to chase her around the house just to listen to her squeal and laugh.
I absolutely LOVE it!
I will admit it, most days she gives me a run for my money, but it's a pretty entertaining run. It amazes me at the new things she learns every month. I was just reading back on last months post that I did about her and it seems like she is a whole different person, but it's only been a month.
How is that even possible?
She waves and says "Hi" like a maniac to EVERYONE! I mean everyone! A simple trip to the grocery store has now turned into to an all day event. Once she waves to someone of course they have to come over and chat with her. The old ladys are the worst. I end up hearing their whole life story and about all 18 great grandkids they have. I literally scope out who is in the aisle before I go down it to save time. But heaven forbid someone doesn't wave back to her she gets PISSED and starts yelling.
She has hit this stage where she thinks it's funny to hide everything. We bought her a kitchen set for Christmas and this chick hides all kinds of crap in the oven or fridge of it. That's the first place we go when were missing something and usually it's stuffed inside. One night she was picking things up in the living room and running down the hall then would come back for more, but would never come back with the item she left with. So, I sat and watched what she was doing. She was loading everything up in the bath tub. Sometimes I wonder what's going through her head.
She is talking up a storm. She says Dada, Mama, Uh-Oh, Hi, Boo, Whoa, and her newest word Papa. It's so sweet. She also tells you what a monkey says and what a dog says.
She got stuck with my jumping skills.... Poor kid.
Somedays I get this glimpse of a girl that seems to be all grown up. The other night I was trying to entertain her before bedtime and I asked her to go get a book out of her room so we could read it and to my surprise she ran right into her room picked up a book off her floor and brought it out to me. I'll admit it, It made me cry. She does the same thing when I ask her if she wants to get in the tub. She'll run right into the bathroom and bang on the tub. She has an obsession with the toilet (maybe that means she'll be easy to potty train.. one can only hope) so I let her sit on it while the tub is filling up. She acts like it's the highlight of her day. She gets so excited.
She is such an independent little girl. She wants to do everything on her own. She has gotten to the point that she doesn't even let me feed her. She refuses to eat it unless she's the one doing it. She loves pancakes and would eat them for every meal if I'd let her. Crazy little girl.
